Abstract:
A case of ruptured thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm was presented. The patient had emergent replacement of thoracoabdominal aorta with an aid of separate perfusion of upper and lower body. The postoperative course was uneventful. It was suggested that separate perfusion of upper and lower body was useful in the patients who require extensive aortic replacement and who are at substantial risk for spinal cord injury.
